This can be tested in the above example, remove height attribute then changing the rotation to -ve value hide the ticks
Having same issue if rotation is a negative value.
It seems a Math.abs(...) in getHorizontalAxisHeight for config.axis_x_tick_rotate fixes this issue.

Why is this still not merged?
some month later i'm still experiencing that error using current release...
RT if still not fixed in 2018
Sorry for the long delay.
You need to update D3.js as well as c3 to update it to v0.5.x.
